CASUALTY INFORMATION SYSTEM
All data in this Casualty Return is produced

mainframe computer. Further details of the
Casualty Information System and other
shipping information files may be found on
the inside back cover of this return.
DEFINITIONS
1 TOTAL LOSS For the purpose of
Lloyd's Register Casualty Returns the
term ‘Total Loss' refers to a merchant
ship which, as a result of being a
marine casualty, has ceased to exist,
either by virtue of the fact that the ship
is irrecoverable or has subsequently been
broken up. Ships -which have been
declared constructive total losses but
which are undergoing or have „
undergone repairs during the quarter are
not included in the Return.
2 CASUALTY CATEGORIES are defined
as follows:—
1 Foundered Includes ships which sank
as a result of heavy weather, springing
of leaks, breaking in two, etc., and not
as a consequence of categories 2-7.
2 Wrecked/Stranded Includes ships
lost as a result of touching the sea
bottom, sandbanks or seashore, etc., as
well as entanglement on underwater
wrecks.
3 Contact Includes ships lost as a
result of striking an external substance
but not another ship or the sea bottom
(see categories 2 & 4). This category
includes striking drilling rigs/platforms, 3
regardless of whether in fixed position
or in tow.
4 Collision Includes ships | os ,
result of striking another ship, 95 9
regardless of whether under w aY
anchored or moored. This categn
not include striking underwater ^
5 Fire and Explosion Includes
lost as a result of fire and/or exp| ■ h
where it is the first event reported 08 "* 1
Note: It therefore follows that
casualties involving fires and/or
explosions after collisions, strandin
etc., would be categorised under 9 '
’Collision", "Stranding’.
6 Missing After a reasonable p e „
time, no news having been received 01 * 11
ship and its fate being therefore 0,1
undetermined, the ship is posted as
'Missing' at the Corporation of L| 0V d'
and is included in the Missing caw!
on the data base together with siW
cases reported by other reliable sourl
Note: In peacetime, missing ships a?*
considered as losses occasioned to sk
by marine perils. ***
7 War Loss—Damage
During Hostilities This categoryj,
intended to encompass loss occasion,
to ships by hostile acts.
8 Hull/Machinery
Damage Includes ships lost as a
result of hull/machinery damage or
failure which is not attributable to
categories 1-7 or category 9.
9 Miscellaneous Includes ships
which have been lost which, for wants
sufficient reasons, cannot be
The last three categories are included
together under the heading ‘Lost’in
Table 1.

DEFINITIONS
1 TOTAL LOSS For the purpose of
Lloyd's Register Casualty Returns the
term 'Total Loss' refers to a merchant
ship which, as a result of being a
marine casualty, has ceased to exist,
either by virtue of the fact that the ship
is irrecoverable or has subsequently been
broken up. Ships which have been
declared constructive total losses but
which are undergoing or have
undergone repairs during the quarter are
not included in the Return.
2 CASUALTY CATEGORIES are defined
as follows:—
1 Foundered Includes ships which sank
as a result of heavy weather, springing
of leaks, breaking in two, etc., and not
as a consequence of categories 2-7.
2 Missing After a reasonable period of
time, no news having been received of a

undetermined, the ship i s Do „
'Missing' at the Corporation

Notes
THE CURRENT QUARTER
The percentage proportion of the world fleet
totally lost during the December Quarter,
1981, was 0.11 % of ships and 0.06% of
tonnage. The proportion of the fleet broken
up, etc., not consequent upon casualty
was 0.15% of ships and 0.34% of tonnage
(see Table 1).
CASUALTIES
Among total losses reported this quarter:
The oldest ship was the cargo ship
HAVBLIK (NOR) 197 GT, built 1937, which
was wrecked off Norway.
The largest ship was the tanker RIVA I
(PAN) 31 678 GT, built 1965, which was
extensively damaged by fire at Eilat.
The highest loss of life occurred in the bulk
carrier MARINA Dl EQUA (ITU 22 901 GT,

A notable loss during the quarter was the
research/cargo ship GOTLAND II (GFR)

Yule Sea after being crushed in ice packs
during an Antarctic survey.
Perhaps the most significant loss was that
of the cargo ship UNION STAR (IRP)
999 GT, built 1981. She was wrecked
whilst on her maiden voyage, off the
Cornish coast, after engine failure in heavy
weather. The lives of her crew were lost as
well as all hands on the attending lifeboat.
Continued hostilities between Iran and Iraq
led to the loss of yet another vessel. The
cargo ship MOIRA (PAN) 4 084 GT, built
1955, sank off Bandar Khomeini on route
from Venice.

term 'Total Loss' refers to a merchant
ship which, as a result of being a
marine casualty, has ceased to exist,

been broken up. Ships which have been
declared constructive total losses but
which are undergoing or have
undergone repairs during the quarter are
not included in the Return.

included under wrecked until the end of 1 980) amounted to
19,669 gross tonnage. Ten ships were lost, the largest of which
was the semi-submersible deck cargo ship SUPER SERVANT 2

Definitions
1 TOTAL LOSS For the purpose of Lloyd's Register Casualty
Returns the term 'Total Loss' refers to a merchant ship which,
as a result of being a marine casualty, has ceased to exist, either
by virtue of the fact that the ship is irrecoverable or has
subsequently been broken up. Ships which have been declared
constructive total losses but which are undergoing or have
undergone repairs during the quarter are not included in the
Return.
2 CASUALTY CATEGORIES are defined as follows:
1 Foundered Includes ships which sank as a result of heavy
weather, springing of leaks, breaking in two, etc., and not as a
consequence of categories 2-7.
2 Missing After a reasonable period of time, no news having
been received of a ship and its fate being therefore
undetermined, the ship is posted as 'Missing' at the
Corporation of Lloyd's and is included in the Missin
on the data base together with similar cases reDnrtiL Cate 90 h,
reliable sources. “ by oth 6 ’ t
Note: In peacetime, missing ships are considered as
occasioned to ships by marine perils. 0s Ses
3 Fire/Explosion Includes ships lost as a result of fir-
explosion where it is the first event reported. 6 an ^ 0 r

5 Contact Includes ships lost as a result of striking an
substance but not another ship or the sea bottom (see e * ,err, 5l

6 Wrecked/Stranded Includes ships lost as a result of
the sea bottom, sandbanks or seashore, etc., as well as° UC S)
entanglement on underwater wrecks.
7 War Loss —Damage During Hostilities This category j
intended to encompass loss occasioned to ships by hostn e
8 Hull/Machinery Damage Includes ships lost as a result t ^* 5
machinery damage or failure which is not attributable to ° ^
categories 1 -7 or category 9.
9 Miscellaneous Includes ships which have been lost wh' v,
